AI Approach to Hand Written Devnagiri Script Recognition

In this paper, a system for recognizing hand written Indian Devnagiri script has been proposed. This system uses an AI approach to integrate information from diverse sources. It has three levels of abstraction low, medium and high. At each level of abstraction, knowledge appropriate to that level is used to identfy the components of the higher level concept. At low level of abstraction, a given document is segmented into components, at the meduim level features are extracted from the segment, and at the high level segments are reconized with available contextual the help of information. To deal with imprecise information a new approach based on the fuzzy logic concept has been suggested.
